They would never play either matches there with Suncorp being so close...Quote:

Suncorp 50k....
25,000 more tickets... $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
It is why Canberra will nevre get an an international match, Sydney is considered close enough for Canberrans and their stadiums are 40,000 and 80,000....
Ok i get you now.Quote:

Have the Decider at Suncorp.
Wouldn't happen, It'd get sent up north before being played at Gold Coast, Schifty basically covered my argument;)
Fair enough youre entitled to your view.
Besides i didnt say whether it will i asked whether you would want it there for a game or 2.
No to Origin, QLD home games should always be at Lang Park.
Yes to internationals. If Energy Australia can host a ANZAC test than Skilled Park should easily fit the criteria for a international match. I would expect at least two games when the World Cup comes around.
I can agree with that. :)Quote:

Test matches yes, but mainly internationals not involving the Kangaroos, or the Kangaroos vs a small nation or Junior Kangaroos or PM's XIII.
Origin never, the stadium isn't and won't be large enough.
Lang Park is the home of State of Origin and it should (and I imagine will) remain that way. Just because a stadium is good, doesn't mean it should host State of Origin matches. Canberra Stadium is a good stadium, but regardless of how convenient it would be for me, I'd hate them to hold a State of Origin there. Its Lang Park and Telstra for Origin. And since QLD struggle at Telstra, I'd prefer it were just Lang Park.
Wont be winless for long mate ;)Quote:
